Well i say its pretty easy, the prep is a bit different you have to clean the spoilers over and over again with a powder cleaning agent like ajax, you have to scrub and scrub and scrub untill its like a flat black color. After thats done i sprayed paint adhesive promoter that makes paint stick and it makes paint "flexible" once cured to prevent it from cracking later on. After thats done i sprayed 4 light even coats of paint, once they dried i sprayed 2 light coats and 1 wet coat of clear coat, i let them sit for 2 days then sanded them down with 2000 grit sand paper till i had an even dull look all around and polished them with rubbing compound and a lil bit of glaze, finally added a bit of wax and slapped those suckers on!

If you have painted any car parts before it should be an easy process, all you need is an air compressor, a spray gun, and ALOT of patience!

Ill try to get the name of the paint adhesive promotor and share it with you guys for those who want to do it them selfs!
